Ali Abunimah of Chicago, a friend of Obama's, is published in the Guardian, in the UK, saying that Palestinians have "no words left" to describe the policy of mass killings–
the majority civilians, including women and children. Israel claims
most of the dead were Hamas "terrorists". In fact, the targets were
police stations in dense residential areas, and the dead included many
police officers and other civilians. Under international law, police
officers are civilians, and targeting them is no less a war crime than
aiming at other civilians.

Palestinians are at a loss to describe
this new catastrophe. Is it our 9/11, or is it a taste of the "bigger
shoah" Matan Vilnai, the deputy defence minister, threatened in
February, after the last round of mass killings?
